The latest addition to the Women of Faith fiction line is a treasure, just as the title assumes. I fell in love with the cover first, but the story quickly measured up to how lovely the outside promises.
A western romance, it brings so much into the story, angst from a Civil War still raging, affecting relationships and emotions even states away. I loved how the historical culture affected and played a role in the characters and their growth.
Characters were likeable, even though Shannon starts the novel with a stuck-up mentality, she quickly becomes a giving and loving character, growing and changing with the flow of the plot. The romance presses upon the characters, due to circumstances, but I loved seeing Shannon and Matthew find attraction in the otheralmost without realizing it.
The actual writing of the book is warm and inviting me to indulge in just one more chapter. Its the kind of story that nearly left me in tears at one point and anxious for the characters to work out their differences and struggles.
Finely crafted, well written, it doesnt have a great deal of suspense or I guess, for lack of a better word worry for the reader, but I nonetheless found enjoyment within its pages. Characters and situations alike made for a quick, welcoming read.
This review is my honest opinion. Thanks to the publishers for my copy to review.
